-it's a cheap gun that can hold it's own
-does shoot fairly straight up to 30 yards
-will hold a laser sight (i have one on mine, it's great when your bunkered)
-will hold CO2 tanks
-shoots fast enough to make someone nervous
- easy adjustment/cleaning

Weaknesses:

- breaks balls like it's no one's business (about 1 every ten shots)
- make out of plastic, not very durable
- when shooting long distance, good luck!
- very loud when it's fired

Conclusion:

For a brass eagle gun it is pretty good. Besides the fact that it breaks balls all the time, and will give you away if your trying to flank your opponent, the marauder is a very good learning tool for beginners. I know because I am still somewhat of a beginner, this gun has helped me learn the game without buying a nice 200-300 dollar gun. Hell, i've even been complemented on the field for playin with such dirt cheap weaponry.
